I have my A+ and figured the next step should be MCSE. Is this the logical order? Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

A lot of people go right to Network+ next. There are some Network+ skills that you are assumed to have for 70-210. I would recommend that first, but it's up to you.

I'd also recommend you go for Network+ next if you don't have prior knowledge on networking. After that, you'd have A+ and Network+ which can act as an elective toward MCSA. From there, you can work your way up to MCSE.

Good luck!

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, I too would suggest going for Net+ before tackling MCSE/MCSA. Also, like anthonie said. The A+/Net+ combo can be used as an elective toward the MCSA.

One word of advice when you tackle the MCSE/A. Study for both the 70-210 and 70-215 together and then take the tests. A lot of information in the 70-215 studying will help further your understanding of concepts, etc. for 70-210. Also, a bit of the material is overlap for 70-210 and 215.

So, IMHO, I would suggest....
1. Network+
2. 70-210 and 215 together
3. 70-218
(Now you have the MCSA 70-210,215,218, Net+,A+)
4. 70-216
5. Finish up on MCSE

i would take the network+ before the MCSE
also take the MCSA before the MCSE
go to www.mcsedirectory.com for more information on the MCSE
